Vinnie, if you're going to include Montreal and Houston, why not also include San Diego? That would give you Randy Jones, Winfield, Robbie Alomar, Gwynn and Ozzie Smith for starters--probably better than either of the other two.

Would like to jump in Vinnie but I'm travelling this week.. Next time.

Hey Vinnie!

Great franchise idea here!

While we're waiting... I'm thinking Pete Browning belongs to the Pirates, but his first NL team was actually the Troy Trojans whom I believe have no connection to any existing franchise; is that how you see it?

Don't see any reference to the Troy Trojans in baseball reference.........why would that be? I do see the first reference to an existing franchise as the Pirates.

If you look at Browning's page you'll see "TOT" listed in the 1891 season; I interpret that to be the Troy Trojans from among the defunct franchises...
